however_o from_o the_o divine_a entailment_n of_o the_o crown_n of_o judah_n on_o the_o posterity_n of_o david_n it_o be_v manifest_v that_o authority_n can_v not_o in_o they_o be_v separate_v from_o

a_o claim_n of_o right_n without_o authority_n the_o contrary_a to_o which_o from_o what_o i_o have_v say_v be_v very_o evident_a what_o i_o will_v observe_v from_o the_o case_n of_o joash_n and_o athaliah_n be_v thus_o god_n by_o express_a revelation_n have_v give_v to_o david_n and_o his_o posterity_n the_o throne_n of_o judah_n and_o israel_n and_o no_o one_o of_o those_o kingdom_n without_o

he_o have_v to_o yield_v it_o i._n e._n a_o plain_a revelation_n to_o the_o contrary_n for_o since_o it_o be_v god_n express_a word_n to_o settle_v those_o crown_n on_o david_n and_o his_o posterity_n nothing_o but_o the_o same_o word_n as_o expressive_a can_v revoke_v the_o donation_n it_o be_v therefore_o this_o express_a word_n by_o his_o prophet_n revoke_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o

be_v the_o admonition_n of_o the_o prophet_n jeremiah_n from_o god_n require_v the_o jew_n to_o pay_v obedience_n to_o nabuchadnezzar_n that_o do_v discharge_v they_o of_o their_o obedience_n to_o the_o posterity_n of_o david_n for_o the_o answerer_n may_v please_v himself_o with_o his_o conceit_n of_o a_o transfer_v right_o but_o sure_o i_o be_o that_o god_n have_v once_o by_o prophecy_n
